Matthieu and Fissa, it's a story that lasts.
He spent months riding the prototype model, in XL size, on the roads and passes around Nice.
But sticking with a fixed setup isn't his thing. His bikes are constantly evolving, the configurations change, the parts rotate.
With his new Fissa, he wanted to test another approach: a size L, more compact, and above all disc braking instead of the pads of his first frame.
The latest modification: the cockpit. Matthieu switched from a drop handlebar to a flat bar, proof that he likes to experiment and refine until he finds the feel that suits him.
With him, a bike is never static: it's a playground that evolves as much as his desire to ride.
His bike
At 1.87 meters tall, Matthieu needed a frame that fit him. He chose a Fissa in size L, painted in an Ultraviolet Purple that catches the light and immediately gives the bike character.
He built the wheels himself: Kleos RD62 rims with spokes on Miche hubs. A solid, custom build that adds a real personal touch.
The transmission remains faithful to Miche with a Pistard Air crankset and a 54-tooth chainring.
A clear choice: this bike is made for taking on big shots.
The cockpit is supplied by Ritchey, including a fully slammed -18° boom.
For the seat, Matthieu opted for a Selle Italia Flite saddle with carbon rails. Lightweight and rigid, it perfectly complements the overall look.
The result: a Fissa designed for everyday use, but it doesn't stop there. This bike can get you to work in the morning and terrorize couriers on the slopes of the Col d'Eze in the afternoon.
In conclusion
Matthieu's Fissa is anything but fixed.
It's his second, and he's treating it like a testing ground: new size, new braking, evolving cockpit...
Every detail tells the story of how he rolls, always in motion.
But behind these constant adjustments, we find the DNA of the model: a compact geometry, a high bottom bracket for pedaling without lifting the foot in the bends, and an aluminum frame welded in Italy designed to take it.
